Esri GIS Software and Licensing
ITS manages the Esri GIS Licensing for a number of Idaho State Agencies. Consolidating licenses, and centralized license management provides more flexibility and typically a reduction in cost for those agencies. This is especially true for agencies that only have a small or moderate number of licenses.
Please contact ITS if you, as an employee of an Idaho State Agency, would like to try out GIS Software, start using GIS or if you have any question about how GIS could benefit your agency. Also contact ITS if you would like to make any changes to the GIS licenses you currently have.
